Bernice Bobs Her Hair

Bernice bobs her hair in the barber's in the square

All her new-found friends are there to see it done

Bernice bobs her hair

She's been driven to despair

'cause her cousin doesn't care about anyone



Her hair was long

Her hair was dark

Her hair flowed down her back

And now it lies upon the floor

Bernice runs out the door



Marjorie had told her what to wear to the parties

Marjorie had told her what to say to the boys

Now marjorie was jealous of her social advances

And presented her with this choice



"bernice bob your hair

You've persistently declared this intention

Do you dare to disagree?"

So bernice bobs her hair and is instantly ensnared

In the trap so well prepared by marjorie
